This is correct 33 jet new hires in indoc right now and a Bro class. Another jet class of 30+ will begin on the 28th. Trust me I know.

We shall see.

Trust me the new hire class was not cancelled. I should know. I was there.

Don't worry, new hire classes are not coming to an end any time soon.

I don't think those boys down south are still making the E120.... but, they do make a few other airplanes that I'm sure would take some maintenance training should we acquire them.

Can't wait to see how many they hire and put in the 28th class. If they can't fill it up maybe then they will start releasing some of our seat locks so I can move move over to the CRJ! Only 2.5 months to go.............god I hate commuting!

Well tell them instructors to hurry up and get your names on the seniority list then, that way other folks on the line wont start spreading rumors anymore about cancelled classes
